This is an unstable release in the development cycle targeted for GNOME 2.18.

This is a very exciting release. Most of the changes are made by Chris Wilson who just got access to the vte repository. On his first day he committed more than 20 large patches, cleaning various parts of the code base and optimizing too! As a result of huge changes in this release, some regressions, specially on less common systems/architectures is expected. Please file bugs.
